I have been taking Burpropion HCL SR 150mg for about 4 months now and I recently got my refill for the next three months. However, instead of saying "Bupropion HCL SR 150MG Tablet" It now says "G.E. Bupropion HCL SR 150MG Tablet". My pills also used to be white with a distinct chemical smell, but these new pills are purple and have a fruity smell. I just want to make sure it isn't a change in composition as I have been taking these routinely for my major depressive disorder and have seen great progress and don't want to have a regression. Thanks for any info! ## Are there any markings on them? When initials, or an abbreviation is listed, before a drug name, it usually stands for the manufacturer. Bupropion may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mo...

it is ayellow color oblong and it is made by teva i am looking for the ingredients active and non active ## My bupropion 300mg XL is white oblong with M B9 by mylan. Is substituted for Wellbutrin XL 300 mg tablets. Have yet to see a pic of the one I am taking. Is there someplace I have not looked? ## Wally ,I don't have a pic to post for you, but I can tell you that it is a white, oblong tablet with the code printed on it in black. NDC: 00378-2009 Do you have some reason to doubt that you've really received Bupropion? To the original poster, what are the markings on the tablet in question? This information would help with being able to answer your question. However, as to the active ingredient, that is Bupropion.

Hi everyone. I'm a 39 year old male and on Day 6 of 150mg Bupropion XL. I am wondering how long it takes Mylan Bupropion XL to start working? Also how long does it take to get the increased libido effects that everyone mentions? Currently a little down and even with Viagra, I have a hard time. ## It may take about 4 to 5 weeks for it to reach its full level of efficacy in your body. As to the side effects, according to the U.S. FDA, it doesn't increase your response/libido, it is that it usually doesn't cause the same loss of libido as other similar medications. Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, and increased risk of seizures. Are you on any other medications? ## What pharmacy dispenses bupropion 150 mg that is manufactured by Mylan? Any help would ...

Does anyone have a list of the medications that can cause false positives? I take quite a few meds and my probation officer said I tested positive. This is impossible. I only take what is prescribed to me, and none of them is on the list of Benzodiazepines. ## There are quite a few medications that can cause such false positives, as a matter of fact, it is far too large of a list for me to name them all for you. However, if you can post back with the names of the medications you take, I will gladly check for you to see if one of them may have caused it. Can you please post back with more information? ## Can Benedryl cause a false positive for Benzos drug screen? If so, where can I find evidence supporting that?

Is bupropion 150 mg fluoride-free and gluten-free? ## Is bupropion 150 mg fluoride-free and gluten-free? ## Good question! I'm in the middle of looking that up now (that's how I came across this post) ## Hello, I'd like to help you but I need to know a bit more information regarding your medication. Do you know the manufacturer and if possible can you give me the imprint on the pills? Each brand will have different inactive ingredients which is where you would find the gluten and flouride. Without knowing the exact brand I would just be taking a shot in the dark and I would hate to have something happen to you because I looked up the wrong brand.

purple, round, four 9's appear around the pill ## Will amlodipine affect me while taking bupropion 300 mg pills? ## Hello, I was unable to find any pill of any color that has four 9's as an imprint, however I was able to find a Bupropion pill that has GG;929 imprint in which the G's sort of look like 9's upside down. I will provide an image, let me know if this is the pill you are asking about and I will provide further information. Let me know if this is the pill that you have. If not I can continue searching. ## I have been given the bupropion hcl xl prescription today. I am overweight. I'm wondering, is this a water pill? And depression pill?

I have been taking Bupropion XL 300 MG TAB ACT. I filled my prescription 3 hrs ago and i was given Bupropion XL 300 MG TAB ANC. I am feeling very strange. The pharmacy said they are exactly the same, just different manufacturers. I have never felt this way on the other Bupropion. ## Hello, Rita! How are you doing? Has there been any change? Are you on any other medications? Can you please describe your feeling strange more specifically? The NIH does warn that it can cause side effects such as nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness, and weight loss. And yes, your pharmacist is correct, they have just been manufactured by different companies. ## Generic Wellbutrin isn’t the same as brand name. Main ingredient is the same but formula is different, so doesn’t metabolize the sa...

sm ooth on one side, other side has 410 with capital E above it. ## Bupropion (byoo-PROE-pee-on) Treats depression and aids in quitting smoking. This medicine is an antidepressant. ## dark blue round pill m on one side 15 on the other ## Jules7373 is correct, and to add specifics, Sandoz Pharmaceuticals lists it as containing 100mgs of Bupropion. It is used to treat depression, anxiety, and to aid in smoking cessation. NDC code: 00185-0410 The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, mood changes, and dry mouth. I hated this stuff, it made me feel that I had drunk several pots of coffee, in a row, I was bouncing off the walls. Jenny, is the M in a box, or not? Can you please post back and clarify?

Will this cause a possitive result of methampethamine from taking a hair folicle test? ## Yes, it has been reported as causing false positives for Methamphetamine on drug tests. Learn more drug test details here. Has this happened to someone you know? ## Yes. It is happening to a family member now. Is on probation taking 150mg of Wellbutrin twice a day now being revoked and having to go to safp. She even had her depression med changed that wouldn't test positive. Judge would not accept any of her documentation, letters from physicians anything. She is totally being railroaded. ## Will wellbutrin xl show up on a drug sweat patch as methamphetamine?

What is it and why is it prescribed? Is this pill an opioid? I found it in my kid's bedroom and I would like to know what type of medication it is. ## Hi Frank, A white oval pill marked with I 71 on one side and blank on the other is reportedly identified as Bupropion hydrochloride extended release (300 mg). This medication is marketed as an antidepressant with a number of other off-label uses as well. For verification, the manufacturer is listed as InvaGen Pharmaceuticals and the pill itself carries a National Drug Code of 76282-0481. I hope this helps! ## It is a pain reliever. Tramadol hydrochloride 50 mg ## This identification is wrong, FYI. The first answer was correct. This pill is not Tramadol, it is Buproprion 300mg.

I just got the same thing and am afraid to take them ## This has also happened to me - got Buprotic (??) 150mg m/r tablets.

I found this white round pill with WPI 839 on it can you tell me what it is. ## WPI 839 is 150 mg Bupropion sustained release ## Marco is correct, this medication is commonly used as an antidepressant, and as a smoking cessation aid. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including dizziness, nervousness, insomnia, headache, and nausea. I tried it once, years ago, and it made me feel like I had drunk multiple pots of coffee, I was almost bouncing off the walls, so I was told to stop taking it, and never take it, again. What experiences have others had taking this medication?

I’ve been taking bupropion xl 150mg for a couple months now and recently switching to taking 300mg. I had some left of the 150mg so my doctor told me to just take 2 til they run out if I want. Anyhow the manufacturer I’ve been taking is Lupin... my depression is under control for the most part, but the energy didn’t last longer than a week or 2. Also this brand has given me serious constipation and food cravings!!! Picked up my new prescription for 300mg by Mylan today. Will be starting that tomorrow... hopefully it works better than Lupin. Does anyone have any experience about Mylan? ## Those can be typical side effects, especially when your dosage is increased, according to FDA reports. You may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache, and nervousness. How are you...

looking for bupropion that is an immediate release pill prefferally white ## From what I've seen, there aren't any generic bupropion tablets that are both white and immediate-release. There are however, other brands of bupropion, such as Aplenzin, which are not extended-release and happen to be white as well. These particular pills are manufactured by Sanofi-Aventis. Teva Pharmaceuticals USA and Sandoz Pharma also make generic, immediate-release bupropion, but the pills are yellow, pink, and purple, as opposed to white. Are there any specific reasons why you prefer a white tablet? ## chemicaly sensitive to atifical colors, but these colors can be wash off slowly without destroying the integrety of pill (looking for white IR Bupropion ## I was taking bupropion xl 150 three a day ...
